Hi Everyone, I'm a long time reader, sometime commenter, and first time thread starter. So in some ways I am still a noob... go easy on me!
What I'd like to ask / discuss is the upcoming iPhone's width. It has been fairly concisely documented that the unit will get longer and thinner, but I keep seeing photos that conflict with reports that the phone will not change in width, like this one:

So, what is the deal? I think that making the phone thinner without making it wider will - without a major technology breakthrough - result in horrible battery life. My reasoning here is that even though the camera is being re-positioned, and the SIM card and connector will be smaller, they still have to add LTE. The battery needs to get 20% larger, and they *might* have been able to get 5% more based on what I can find.
Please share your thoughts... Thanks!
